I wonder how the high hat pedal will work, considering there is no high-hat pedal notes in the game.  Will it "switch" the red and yellow pads while the pedal is held down? <br><br>Also, these had better be rubber pads!<br><br>I'm very intrigued by this!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[TopaZ]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 19th 2008 6:38PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Mad Catz apt to release Rock Band instruments next week]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/19/mad-catz-apt-to-release-rock-band-instruments-next-week/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/19/mad-catz-apt-to-release-rock-band-instruments-next-week/</guid><description><![CDATA[It may be a double-bass pedal.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Low Ranked]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 19th 2008 7:35PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Mad Catz apt to release Rock Band instruments next week]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/19/mad-catz-apt-to-release-rock-band-instruments-next-week/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/19/mad-catz-apt-to-release-rock-band-instruments-next-week/</guid><description><![CDATA[Sorry, it IS a high-hat pedal but I would bet on seeing a double-bass pedal mod, which would be much more useful.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Low Ranked]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 19th 2008 7:37PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Mad Catz apt to release Rock Band instruments next week]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/19/mad-catz-apt-to-release-rock-band-instruments-next-week/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/19/mad-catz-apt-to-release-rock-band-instruments-next-week/</guid><description><![CDATA[I haven't honestly played a lot of Rock Band after the lag issues from the last update, it's pissing me off that they haven't fixed it yet.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[mmendoza27]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 19th 2008 6:42PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Mad Catz apt to release Rock Band instruments next week]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/19/mad-catz-apt-to-release-rock-band-instruments-next-week/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/19/mad-catz-apt-to-release-rock-band-instruments-next-week/</guid><description><![CDATA["...you can't afford for that first one to get defenestrated."<br><br>Looks like SOMEbody read Dictionary.com's word of the day today:<br><a href="http://dictionary.reference.com/wordoftheday/archive/2008/06/19.html" rel="nofollow">http://dictionary.reference.com/wordoftheday/archive/2008/06/19.html</a>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[sonick]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 19th 2008 6:52PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Mad Catz apt to release Rock Band instruments next week]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/19/mad-catz-apt-to-release-rock-band-instruments-next-week/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/19/mad-catz-apt-to-release-rock-band-instruments-next-week/</guid><description><![CDATA[Hey Buzz, now you can be awesome just like you always wanted to!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Mr. S.]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 19th 2008 6:55PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Mad Catz apt to release Rock Band instruments next week]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/19/mad-catz-apt-to-release-rock-band-instruments-next-week/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/19/mad-catz-apt-to-release-rock-band-instruments-next-week/</guid><description><![CDATA[How would you use that premium drum kit<br>could you use the symbols instead of the far right pad?(forgot the color)<br>and $150 is a little steep for anything like that<br>but it is mad katz so......]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Some Kid]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 19th 2008 6:58PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Mad Catz apt to release Rock Band instruments next week]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/19/mad-catz-apt-to-release-rock-band-instruments-next-week/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/19/mad-catz-apt-to-release-rock-band-instruments-next-week/</guid><description><![CDATA[How would you use that premium drum kit<br>could you use the symbols instead of the far right pad?(forgot the color)<br>and $150 is a little steep for anything like that<br>but it is mad katz so......]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Some Kid]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 19th 2008 6:58PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Mad Catz apt to release Rock Band instruments next week]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/19/mad-catz-apt-to-release-rock-band-instruments-next-week/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/19/mad-catz-apt-to-release-rock-band-instruments-next-week/</guid><description><![CDATA[DAMN REPLY SYSTEM!<br>i HATE!

It will likely trigger the yellow pad unless you set up lefty. They should look into allowing the kicks be moved freely instead of having them mounted to the framework.  Having long legs makes it almost impossible to play comfortably. It does appear that you may be able to move the heads around like on a real electronic set, which is kinda cool if the bars are long enough.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Azien]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 30th 2008 1:18PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Mad Catz apt to release Rock Band instruments next week]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/19/mad-catz-apt-to-release-rock-band-instruments-next-week/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/19/mad-catz-apt-to-release-rock-band-instruments-next-week/</guid><description><![CDATA[well i think this is kinda stupid and a waste of cash because well first of all it's mad catz like ya but they could be better at this product but i'm not sure, there reputation is very bad and 2nd of all, rock band 2 is coming out in september with premium drum kits and stuff lol, my as well wait untill fall eh paca]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[journey john]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 6th 2008 2:08AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
